About Our Church

 

We are a little country church that God has brought so far for us to have a wonderful sanctuary to worship in. Our services include congregational singing and special music by the choir and sometimes special music by others, prayer, offerings and a message from our pastor. Our worship time is a way to share the gospel of Jesus Christ in a meaningful way and we have a greeting time that we greet each other and our visitors to make them welcome to our church. We also provide a nursery for those who need it.

We are committed to sharing the good news of Jesus Christ to all and that you must have a personal relationship with Him to be saved.

We are a friendly, caring family of believers.
